On going contests

Brave New World Contest - CLOSEDUpdates
The Contest is now CLOSED
WINNERS have been announced here:


Theme: Brave New World
Picture the world 1000 years from now.
Will mankind have vanished? Have we managed to eradicate ourselves? If so how? Was it a bomb, a virus, something out of our reach (a natural catastrophe for example)? Are there still people on earth? How do they live? Or have we moved on to the stars? Maybe everything went splendidly, maybe there is no more hunger and everyone has everything they could wish for. Including your personal android to help with your every wish.
Maybe it's a mix of both, neither completely bad nor completely good.
What do you think? Show us!

Medium
Photomanipulation
(nothing else, sorry)
Photomanipulations are images that have been composed of two or more photographic elements to create something new.

Our april challenge is themed storybook. We like to "read" your story.
This is the tutorial we want you to make. 
All the used images are mentioned on youtube so easy to find (most DA images)
But.....
You can use: the same background, the same book (but you don't have to)
You cannot use: all the other images
